Principal Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: PFG) today announced results for fourth quarter and full-year 2014.

Operating earnings per diluted share (EPS) increased 14 percent to $1.09 for fourth quarter 2014, compared to $0.96 for fourth quarter 2013.

Full-year 2014 EPS increased 24 percent to $4.41 compared to $3.55 for full-year 2013.
  • Net income available to common stockholders for fourth quarter 2014 increased 16 percent to $270.4 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared to $233.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted share for fourth quarter 2013. For the 12 months ending Dec. 31, 2014, net income available to common stockholders increased 26 percent to $1,111.1 million, or $3.65 per diluted share, compared to $879.7 million, or $2.95 per diluted share, for the 12 months ending Dec. 31, 2013.
  • Operating revenues for fourth quarter 2014 were $2,960.2 million, an increase of 8 percent, compared to $2,741.6 million for fourth quarter 2013. Operating revenues for the 12 months ending Dec. 31, 2014, increased 10 percent to $10,554.8 million compared to $9,607.4 million for the same period last year.
  • Quarterly dividend of $0.36 per share of common stock for first quarter 2015, a 6 percent increase over fourth quarter 2014, authorized by its Board of Directors. The dividend will be payable on March 27, 2015, to shareholders of record as of March 9, 2015.

“We delivered outstanding results in 2014. Despite the headwinds of a strengthening U.S. dollar and lower interest rates, we grew operating earnings and earnings per share by 24 percent over 2013 and delivered $18 billion of net cash flows, driving assets under management to a record $519 billion,” said Larry D. Zimpleman, chairman and chief executive officer. “With our recent announcement to acquire AXA’s Hong Kong pension business, we continue to position ourselves as a global leader in investment management and retirement. We are well positioned for continued growth in 2015 and beyond.”

Added Terry Lillis, executive vice president and chief financial officer, “Fourth quarter 2014 was a strong finish to a record-setting year. Our return on equity improved 210 basis points in 2014 to 14.2 percent as we continue to grow operating earnings and effectively manage our capital base. The increase to our common stock dividend announced today is further proof that our fee-based business model enables us to deploy increased amounts of capital to further enhance long-term value for shareholders.”

Forward looking and cautionary statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements as to operating earnings, net income available to common stockholders, net cash flows, realized and unrealized gains and losses, capital and liquidity positions, sales and earnings trends, and management's beliefs, expectations, goals and opinions. The company does not undertake to update these statements, which are based on a number of assumptions concerning future conditions that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Future events and their effects on the company may not be those anticipated, and actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. The risks, uncertainties and factors that could cause or contribute to such material differences are discussed in the company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013, and in the company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2014, filed by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as updated or supplemented from time to time in subsequent filings. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation: adverse capital and credit market conditions may significantly affect the company’s ability to meet liquidity needs, access to capital and cost of capital; conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally; continued volatility or declines in the equity, bond or real estate markets; changes in interest rates or credit spreads; the company’s investment portfolio is subject to several risks that may diminish the value of its invested assets and the investment returns credited to customers; the company’s valuation of securities may include methodologies, estimations and assumptions that are subject to differing interpretations; the determination of the amount of allowances and impairments taken on the company’s investments requires estimations and assumptions that are subject to differing interpretations; gross unrealized losses may be realized or result in future impairments; competition from companies that may have greater financial resources, broader arrays of products, higher ratings and stronger financial performance; a downgrade in the company’s financial strength or credit ratings; inability to attract and retain sales representatives and develop new distribution sources; international business risks; the company’s actual experience could differ significantly from its pricing and reserving assumptions; the company’s ability to pay stockholder dividends and meet its obligations may be constrained by the limitations on dividends or distributions Iowa insurance laws impose on Principal Life; the pattern of amortizing the company’s DAC and other actuarial balances on its universal life-type insurance contracts, participating life insurance policies and certain investment contracts may change; the company may need to fund deficiencies in its “Closed Block” assets that support participating ordinary life insurance policies that had a dividend scale in force at the time of Principal Life’s 1998 conversion into a stock life insurance company; the company’s reinsurers could default on their obligations or increase their rates; risks arising from acquisitions of businesses; changes in laws, regulations or accounting standards; a computer system failure or security breach could disrupt the company’s business and damage its reputation; results of litigation and regulatory investigations; from time to time the company may become subject to tax audits, tax litigation or similar proceedings, and as a result it may owe additional taxes, interest and penalties in amounts that may be material; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and applicable laws and the company’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws may discourage takeovers and business combinations that some stockholders might consider in their best interests.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company uses a number of non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful to investors because they illustrate the performance of normal, ongoing operations, which is important in understanding and evaluating the company’s financial condition and results of operations. They are not, however, a substitute for U.S. GAAP financial measures. Therefore, the company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure at the end of the release. The company adjusts U.S. GAAP measures for items not directly related to ongoing operations. However, it is possible these adjusting items have occurred in the past and could recur in future reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP measures for goal setting, as a basis for determining employee and senior management awards and compensation, and evaluating performance on a basis comparable to that used by investors and securities analysts.

*Operating earnings versus U.S. GAAP (GAAP) net income available to common stockholders
Management uses operating earnings, which excludes the effect of net realized capital gains and losses, as adjusted, and other after-tax adjustments, for goal setting, as a basis for determining employee compensation, and evaluating performance on a basis comparable to that used by investors and securities analysts. Segment operating earnings are determined by adjusting U.S. GAAP net income available to common stockholders for net realized capital gains and losses, as adjusted, and other after-tax adjustments the company believes are not indicative of overall operating trends. Note: it is possible these adjusting items have occurred in the past and could recur in future reporting periods. While these items may be significant components in understanding and assessing our consolidated financial performance, management believes the presentation of segment operating earnings enhances the understanding of results of operations by highlighting earnings attributable to the normal, ongoing operations of the company’s businesses.
